Rumor: Ubisoft Reflections working on racer 'The Crew'

Driver series developer Ubisoft Reflections is working on a new racing game called The Crew, The Examiner reports. Citing an unnamed source, Examiner says the game is an all new racing franchise that is intended to be a "realistic title, possibly being positioned against Forza and Gran Turismo."

Reflections has been out of the racing game circuit for the past couple years after the release of Driver: San Francisco. The studio has spent its time since playing second fiddle on Just Dance, Far Cry and Watch Dogs for Ubisoft's Montreal and Paris studios.

Description

Gamers fill the role of original series protagonist John Tanner, who is in the unfortunate position of being totally comatose. The game takes place in his mind, giving him the ability to change his dream reality to his will. Tanner must have a photographic memory, as the game will include a roster of over 100 licensed cars.
